Hey friends,
Happy Summer to You!! I’m glad to be back
with Part One of my Summer Blog Series! I figured, what better way to get this
party started than to get outside and visit my favorite farmer’s markets. I
love farmer’s markets! Some cities, for various reasons, are struggling to
maintain a vibrant market scene. But most are doing well, and I believe they
are an important part of our cityscapes, economies, and local cultures.
On this tour, I
thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the following farmers, and I’m happy to
introduce them to you:

Shirley Girl
Cheeses
I met many other
amazing farmers and food artisans, so this is definitely not an exhaustive
list. I couldn’t find contact information on Blue Adirondack or Shirley Girl,
so if you know how to reach them, please comment below.

| Let the tour begin! |
On my tour, I
visited the Bannerman, Lake Ella, and Tallahassee Farmer’s Markets. One
question I asked the farmers: What do you do with leftover food, items that do
not sell? Some take them to the next market. Others practice canning. Most
everyone practices composting. And, of course, the farmers eat the leftovers!

| I purchased the Adzuki Bean Tempeh from PJ’s, also Play of Sunlight Mushrooms. I love the easily-digestible adzuki, and I can’t wait to try it! And, look at those beautiful ‘shrooms. I'll be cooking the tempeh on my insta-stories, I will comment here, and let you know how it went. So great to meet you guys! |

Julia and
friend from New Green Organiks! I purchased the broccoli microgreens. Microgreens
have so many amazing health benefits. I know Julia can explain them way better
than me!! Great to meet you!

I was so happy
to meet Menia, Owner of Desserts by Latrell, at the Bannerman Market! I purchased her melt-in-your-mouth coconut
scones. They are the perfect treat. I can’t wait to visit you again soon, and
try the other scone varieties!!

I also met
Henry at the Bannerman Market. Henry is a farmer with the Treehouse
Permaculture Center.
|

I purchased the
carrots and cucumbers from the Treehouse Permaculture Center stand. Absolutely
delicious, fresh and flavorful! Thank you, Henry!

Shirley Girl
Cheese? Yes, please!

 |
Paradise can be
found with an established and trusted local farm!

I purchased a
large bag of blueberries from Blue Adirondack, and they were gone the same day!
I am a sucker for fresh, local blueberries! They also make yummy jams. I did
not get the ladies’ names, but they were so kind! Thank you!
|
 |
Local Honey by
Orchard Pond Organics. I purchased a honey bear! So good, and reasonably-priced!!
|
 |
Beautiful Lake
Ella Farmer’s Market!
|
 |
I’ll visit a
market by a beautiful lake any day! This one happens to be on Wednesdays!

ReplyDeleteI love a good farmer's market and visits are a routine part of my summer. There's nothing like buying fresh produce, artisan baked goods, and honey directly from a beekeeper!

ReplyDeleteSuch a fantastic post and you shared awesome experiences with us. Nice pictures you captured. Thank you so much for sharing this post. I want to tell about my story I mostly visit Thailand because its natural beauty attract me. Thailand’s thousands of beaches are perhaps what makes the country the ultimate place to relax and feel inspired. Some of the most famous are on islands like Phuket, in Southern Thailand. Phuket alone has over 30 beaches — Nai Harn or Yanui Beach in the south and Bangtao or Nai Yang in the north are quieter than others. Or, if you’re in Bangkok with a free day, the 2.5-hour trip to the extremely popular Hua Hin is a great trip. It’s served as a beach destination for locals — and even royalty — for nearly 100 years.https://catmotors.net/routes/doi-inthanon-national-park/ For options with slightly fewer tourists, consider the beautiful southern provinces of Nakhon Si Thammarat and Satun, both not too far from Krabi. Or grab a longboat from Ao Nang and take a ride to one of the many Andaman island getaways: Ko Lanta has snorkeling and diving tours, while Maya Beach, made famous by Leonardo DiCaprio’s The Beach, is on Ko Phi Phi Leh. Over in the Gulf of Thailand, the Full Moon party on Ko Phangan is once a month and quite the extravaganza — face paint optional, but encouraged. https://catmotors.net/routes/pai/ For more visit.

ReplyDeleteYellow and white are mainstream hues. At that point, place a spot of nail clean on your nail. Pick a nail shading for the genuine bloom and make a few spots around the principal touch you made. You have now made a bloom. manchester market lexington
